15 signs that Tanggol is falling for Bubbles in “FPJ’s Batang Quiapo”

We smell romantic feelings brewing!

Tanggol (Coco Martin) is known for his ‘astig’ demeanor. After all, he's a 'Batang Quiapo.' But it’s becoming more obvious that he’s turning soft towards Bubbles (Ivana Alawi). Some people around them are also noticing his extra care towards her. And when it comes to feelings, the more you try to deny them, the more they swim to the surface.

So, based on the scenes in this Kapamilya Toplist video, it's as clear as day that Tanggol is gradually falling for Bubbles.

On his first day out of prison, after being beaten and kicked out by his father, Rigor (John Estrada), the first person he visited was Bubbles, probably because he felt that she wouldn't abandon him and would help him. True enough, she treated his wounds just like she did on his first day in the correctional.

They say that the eyes never lie. Tanggol glowed with a smile as Bubbles treated his injury. And when they were about to leave the house to apply for work, he was left speechless by her beauty.

That night, a street kid sold him sampaguita, which reminded him of Mokang (Lovi Poe). But, giving Sampaguita to Bubbles now, is it a sign that she's replacing Mokang in Tanggol's heart? Well, there was Jelly (Kim Rodriguez), who obviously has a thing for her, but he still gave the flowers to Bubbles.

If Tanggol's love language is acts of service, you'll know he's hit by Cupid’s arrow when he cooked breakfast for Bubbles. On the same day, while they were walking outside the church, he stopped to tie her shoelace that came undone while they were walking.

If love means wanting to see the other person achieve their dreams, then Tanggol surely hinted at his romantic feelings when he promised to accompany Bubbles in fulfilling her wish of going to a country with snow.

Oops! He showed what jealousy looked like when Pablo (Elijah Canlas), their customer at the bar, became touchy towards Bubbles. He also had a sour reaction when Pablo visited Bubbles' house to formally ask her out on a date, which was agreed upon as the prize for Pablo beating Tanggol in a billiards game at the bar.

Even Emong (Nikko Natividad) noticed his extra care and protectiveness towards Bubbles. But Tanggol denied it and insisted he just wanted his friend to be safe.

When Pablo accompanied Bubbles home that afternoon, Tanggol interrogated them like a police officer, asking what they did. He also warned Bubbles to be cautious around Pablo, saying that he knows how a typical guy behaves.

Will Tanggol learn to be honest about his feelings for Bubbles?
